Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Chapter 103 I Already Like Someone Else The Meyer family's birthday banquet was held majestically. They booked the entire Mountain Hotel. Although most of the guests wouldn't stay for the night, they had arranged rooms for every guest to rest in.

Theodore drank quite a bit and was helped to the hotel room by the staff. Josephine stayed in the banquet hall as she needed to inform the Meyer family before they left.

Theodore usually had a better alcohol tolerance, but for sreason, even though he did not drink much, he felt that his steps were a little weak and his vision, a little blurry. Now that he had taken two steps, the scent of alcohol was rising up from his stomach.

After lying on the hotel bed with his eyes closed for a while, he took out his phone from his pocket and dialed a number. He rubbed his forehead, "Ten minutes later, ask the driver to drive the car to the entrance of the hotel..." Moses' voice cfrom the other end of the line. "Yes." After hanging up, Theodore's eyes were still closed, but the scene of Everleigh being surrounded by the Meyer family in the banquet hall was still lingering in front of him.

He had made countless speculations, but he never thought that she was married.

Perhaps it was because of the effect of alcohol, but Theodore's usual calm and rational nature had completely vanished. It was impossible for him to suppress the wild emotions spreading in his heart as if they were poisoned vines crawling into his heart, filling him with darkness.

He felt his body heating up for no reason, and his gradually sinking emotions fell into a dream woven by memories.

"Theodore, let's break up. We won't meet again in the future." Seven years ago, in the summer, under the shades of the camphor tree in Jaquel East Street in Ocpeace City, Everleigh had said those words to him with a cold face.

Before this sentence, they had been in a cold war for more than a month. This was the longest tthey had ever been in a cold war since they got together. However, he had just started working after graduating at that time. He was too busy even to take a sip of water, and he didn't notice that there was something wrong with Everleigh.

At that time, he thought she was just making a little fuss as usual. It was not until the company's newcomer training was over that he finally realized that during the whole month of training, Everleigh didn't once look for him.

A man who had been in a relationship for a long twould know the bottom line of his girlfriend. If he stepped across a certain threshold, he would upset his girlfriend, and throw himself into an endless pit.

Back then, Theodore was no exception. When he realized that something wasn't right, he immediately called Everleigh on the phone and rushed over to wait below her house.

"Sorry, the number you had dialed has not been answered for the tbeing. Please call again later." After the perfect English accent, there was a string of fluent foreign translations. Theodore listened to it several times in the past month. Because he was busy with work, he didn't pay much attention to it. After a month, he finally realized that something was wrong.

He waited for three days at the Trevino family's residence and called Everleigh countless times. Finally, three days later, Everleigh cout of the house and said to him, "Let's break up." What she said was concise and comprehensive. Each word could be heard clearly; she was indifferent and mechanical.

Although dreams were said to be a reflection of the reality, it was more about people's subjective speculations and personal decorations.

In Theodore's dream, Everleigh's face was always full of loneliness and pride. This was the image that Theodore had given her in the past seven years. Every tthere was a dream of the past, the pain would be deepened.

Seven years ago, in the face of a sudden breakup, Theodore, at the age of 22, did not realize the severity of the matter. They were both hot-tempered people and they usually quarreled with each other. When things were heated, saying the words "break up" was a common thing.

"Stop making a fuss, Everleigh. I'll accompany you on a trip after I'm free these days. Things are too busy at the company." "I'm not making a fuss. It has nothing to do with you. It's my problem." Everleigh looked at him and said clearly, "I have fallen for someone else." Her words caused Theodore's mind to buzz and explode. "That's impossible." "Nothing is impossible. We're just in a relationship, not married. I have someone else that I like. It's that simple." Her speech seemed to have been practiced several times. Without a word of stutter, it floated smoothly in the surrounding air, suffocating him.

It was the end of July in the midsummer, the hottest tin Ocpeace City.

In order to ambush Everleigh, Theodore had been sweating profusely after standing in the sun for three hours, almost suffering from heatstroke. However, at that moment, it was as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on his head. The chill spread from his hair to his toe.

"What do you mean, you've fallen for someone else? Who? When did it happen?" Everleigh frowned, with a slight crease on her delicate brows, as if she was disdainful of this issue and had no intention of answering it. As expected, she said, "I don't want to talk about it." "Did something happen?" "No," Everleigh's face suddenly turned pale. "Nothing happened." The rays of sunlight shone through the gaps between the camphor trees above her head. The mottled shade of the trees shone on her beautiful face, swaying slightly with the rare summer breeze. Not far behind Everleigh was the gate of the Trevino family's villa. A gray car slowly stopped at the gate.

Theodore had seen it before. It was Abraham's car.

Everleigh said, "My dad is back. I'll get going." "What's the matter? Stop this nonsense." He tried to grab Everleigh's hand, but she took a step back, obviously nervous.

Everleigh looked back at her father's car and said with a frown, "I'm going to go abroad next month to study. Let's not contact each other anymore. Let's delete each other's contact information." The woman's indifferent face and cold words put an end to their five-year relationship.

Theodore clenched his fists tightly. The sound of skin rubbing against flesh was especially clear in them midst of the chirping of cicadas in summer. It was also particularly irritating. "Everleigh, there's a limit to your petty behavior. What I hate the most is for you to mention breaking up whenever you want to." He just wanted the problem to be solved, not by threatening him with a breakup. Most importantly, he didn't want to believe Everleigh's words that she had fallen in love with someone else.

"It's true this time." Everleigh's eyes were extremely calm, making him panic after looking at her for a while.

All of a sudden, the scene in front of him becdistorted, suddenly changing into a beautiful morning.

The morning sunshine cin through the gaps of the curtain and shone on the man's eyelids. The man was awakened by the bright light, and the instant he opened his eyes, he felt a sudden throb in his temple. The hotel room was filled with the strong scent of alcohol, and clothes and a leather belt was scattered on the floor. The air seemed to be filled with a sense of lust.

Theodore tried to recall what had happened the night before, only to find that his memories had gone blank. He couldn't even remember how he had cto the hotel.

Until he saw the phone on the bedside table, it showed that he had called Everleigh countless times last arleigh count night, and the last call showed that she had answered the phone. There was also a cup of warm water on the bedside table.
